(Tips & Trik mengerjakan Toefl listening Part C)
Toefl listening Part C ini memang agak sedikit berbeda dengan listening part A dan part B karena tidak akan ada Dialog antara 2 orang. Disini kamu akan mendengarkan kuliah dari seorang dosen dengan topik seperti American History, literature, Astronomy, Biology, dsb. Namun Tips untuk listening part C ini hampir mirip dengan tipe soal listening sebelumnya. Simak tips dibawah ini ya:
Fokus pada kalimat pertama
Biasanya kalimat pertama ini merupakan main idea atau topik yang sedang dibicarakan. Di soal, biasanya selalu ada pertanyaan tentang topik atau main idea apa yang sedang dibahas loh… 2. Biasanya selalu ada instruksi terlebih dahulu di setiap pergantian part listening. Nah yang kamu harus lakukan pada momen ini adalah sempatkan arah mata kamu ke jawaban yang tersedia di pilihan ganda sehingga kamu bisa mengira2 pertanyaan apa yang cocok untuk dijawab. Hal ini akan membantu kamu untuk fokus hanya mendengarkan apa saja yang berkaitan dengan pilihan jawaban yang tersedia.
Belajar menyimpulkan

Tetap Tenang
